Rehabilitation

We work with the best rehabilitators in the state. It is our goal to make sure the birds in our care get professional care and go to the best possible facility in the state to make sure they can live independently in the wild.

Our Rehabilitation Methodology

Rehabilitating is not an easy task. Birds can’t tell us what is wrong. As we work to build our own facility our birds have to be transported to a variety of places for care. Our vets are not on site so the birds have to be transported to and from the vets. In many cases the best place for care can be well over 100 miles away from us. Support our cause to build the Tampa Bay Raptor Center to rehabilitate our local birds, locally. In 2016 we drove over 40,000 miles rescuing and transporting birds. We average 71 miles per bird.
